Skype

One other techie thing--you gotta get Skype. When Betsy was here the other day we downloaded it to my new computer and then tried it out with computers in different rooms. Tonight we talked to Amy in Chicago for a long time using Skype. It was almost hard to talk, the visual aspect was so distracting, as we grinned at each other's chin or collarbone (because the webcams are just above the screen). But it was easy and free! I have it loaded on my ASUS mini so we'll be able to make free video calls from England in the spring. It's way fun.
